02x10 - O Is for Ovaphobia

[bunniefuu]

My sister's grafted to my body, here.

DAVID: It's called RSM Fertility.

We think there was an attempt
to corrupt its fertilized eggs.

One of my daughters was conceived

with the help of that clinic.

Something changed Eric,
and it wants to k*ll us.

- Mathilda.
- They said I started a fire in her room,

but I didn't; I swear
I would never hurt her.

So what is this business proposition?

I've been invited
to a party of influencers.

It's the Canal Party in the Hamptons.

- I want you to go with me.
- Why?

Because... you're an influencer.

To our mutual hate.

Mutual.

(SHARP ROAR)

- I don't know what else to say.
- BEN: You don't remember anything?

No, no, no, I-I remember everything.

I just remember it all being ordinary.

How did you find out about
this fertility clinic?

Um, through my general
practitioner, Dr. Ruin.

Mm. Is Dr. Ruin still your doctor?

- No. He-he d*ed few years ago.
- How did he die?

Uh, there's no conspiracy there.

Um, he had a stroke. He wasn't young.

BEN: And who was your doctor at RSM?

Um, Dr. Berridge. Murray Berridge.

Was there anything unusual about him?

He had a stutter. (LAUGHS)

Um, look, I-I really don't know
what else to say.

It was an upper East Side
fertility clinic.

Um, I didn't get the sense
that I was being manipulated,

or that the doctors were being
anything but professional.

And Lexis?

My daughter?

- Yeah.
- What's the question?

Is she all right? Is she...

Demonic?

Okay, look.

We're getting serious about
this fertility clinic, right?

A fertility clinic that
might be responsible

for fostering psychopathic children.

Is the question whether or not

Lexis is showing signs
of being a psychopath?

I am asking if your experience

at this fertility clinic was in any way

- out of the ordinary.
- Not to my knowledge, Ben.

Great.

Okay.

Uh, this is what I suggest.

- We talk to Mathilda's mom...
- KRISTEN: Mm-hmm.

... and we find out whether she had

a different experience at RSM.

- Sound good?
- Yeah. That sounds great.

- Sure.
- Yeah.

(CLEARS THROAT)

(BELL RINGS)

Oh, my God.

Vanessa, what happened?

She was angry. I-I didn't think

she'd go this far, but she
just started going crazy.

- Who?
- Maggie!

She hated that I was going out.

She hated that I was ignoring her.

- She just started throwing things around.
- Vanessa...

Shut up, Ben, I know what
you're going to say.

Look, I-I'm here for you.

- She's real. She's here.
- I know. I know.

I've accepted that. Okay?

Listen, um, one of my coworkers
has connections, and...

Okay, let me just get some referrals

from some therapists from her
that might help...

- I'm not crazy.
- I know.

I know, I-I don't think you are.

But let me make a call.

No, I will.

This has gone too far.

Good. Good.

Vanessa, look, wherever you go,
whoever you see,

I-I'll go with you. I'll take you there,

and I'll, and I'll be there
when it's over.

Thank you.

I love you.

I, uh...

... think I love you, too.

(LAUGHS) You think?

I'm sorry. Um... It's who I am.

I-I have to think it
before I believe it.

Mm.

Were you able to visit Mathilda yet?

Not yet.

They say she b*rned down
her foster parents' home,

but I just think it's a mistake.

Tammy, we wanted to ask you
about your experience with RSM.

Yeah, the, uh, fertility clinic.

We were wondering,
was there anything unusual about

your interactions with them?

What do you mean?

Well, did you worry about
how they treated you?

No.

I mean, there was only one thing

that was a bit... rude.

They sent me this termination
letter that I'd stopped paying

for my eggs to be stored.

(TAMMY INHALES, EXHALES DEEPLY)

I didn't know I'd stopped.

It was just weird, like...
paying rent for human life.

KRISTEN: When did
this come? This letter?

About four years ago.
Did you get one, too?

I don't know. I-I-I mean,
I don't remember.

Tammy, was there anything
about Mathilda as a baby

that was different?

No. She was great. Very healthy.

Except her teeth.

What was wrong with her teeth?

Nothing. She had... she had
a few operations to mold them.

They were coming in very sharp.

Um, the dentist said she had
these protruding canine teeth.

Did... uh, did I say something?

MALINDAZ (ON VIDEO): Okay, the
packaging on all whitener strips says

- LAURA: Come on, Lex, I gotta go!

- I'm not done yet.
- You're been in there for hours.

Stop exaggerating.

- I'm telling Mom!
- Now, don't expect them

to turn white overnight, but eventually

you want is a smile like this.

KRISTEN: (KNOCKING)
Lexis, you okay in there?

Oh, my God, can I just get
one minute to myself, please?!

MALINDAZ: Okay, this is
what I call the eyeball test.

When you're talking to a best friend,

ask them "How do I look?"

And they'll be like, "You look great".

But pay attention
to where their eyes go.

If they go to your nose,
that's your problem area.

If they go to your mouth,
it's your smile.

- This one or this one?
- We need a bigger house!

- You look better in stripes.
- You look better in pattern.

- It's just a party.
- Then what are you so worried about?

Nothing. I just want
to wear what's right.

- But your face is...
- How do I look?

My turn.

- Do a catwalk.
- Yes!

Okay, you look good,
but your hair is a mess.

turn it all down a notch?

- We know you like us. We all know it.

- It's obviously the younger one.
- Yeah, exactly. She wanted us.

Hello, I'm right here.
You know that, right, Lynn?

Hey, you don't want pizza.

We're going to have dinner later.

Why? Do you think I'm fat?

No. I just don't want you
to ruin your appetite.

- How do I look?
- How do you look?

Yeah. How do I look?

You look beautiful.

Thanks. You just told me.

Good.

KRISTEN: Um, I checked
the statements for,

uh, the storage fees
for my eggs, of them,

and I haven't paid anything
in the last six years.

So you're calling for a status update?

KRISTEN: Uh, sure, yeah.

One moment.

The accounting I have says
you're all up to date,

and you're on the yearly,
not the monthly plan.

Right, but I, but I haven't
paid anything.

Oh, I see the discrepancy now.

There's another name on your account.

- Oh, is it Andy? Andy Bouchard?
- No.

What's the other name on my account?

Unfortunately, I can't disclose
that information over the phone.

But it's my account, my information.

- My eggs.
- I understand your frustration, Ms. Bouchard,

but it's company policy
to protect family heritages.

- But it's my family.
- Again, I sympathize.

But that is our policy.

Please call back if you have
any other questions.

(PHONE BEEPS OFF)

When you said you were
gonna call for help,

- I thought you meant therapy.
- This is therapy.

No, therapists don't usually have signs

that say "psychic readings".

Whose phone is locked?

- Are you Miss Marie?
- I am.

Isn't it illegal to unlock
people's phones?

Are you the police?

You're the psychic. You can't tell me?

- I called about my sister issue.
- Oh, yes.

Vanessa. Over here.

Miss Marie, could you give us a minute?

Yes. But please hurry. I'm booked solid.

Ben, this woman is going to help me

get rid of my sister,
so could you please lighten up?

Look, let's make an agreement.

If she doesn't help you,
then you let me make a call.

- To who?
- To my friend who's a therapist.

You know, psychology.

If she doesn't help me,
we'll go to your friend.

Please take off your shoes.

Let us hold hands.

Should we close our eyes?

No, keep them open.

Mrs. Bouchard, I have helped

Each year, thousands of eggs
are abandoned.

They sit frozen
in the center's nitrogen tanks.

I did not abandon my eggs.

I never received a notice to pay.

Well, maybe "abandon" is
too harsh a word.

Well, for me, an egg isn't just a cell.

It is a potential child.

And my religious convictions
will not allow me

to destroy an unborn child.

And that is why I often continue
to pay for storage.

I do not care about
your religion, Doctor.

Or your dedication.

What I care about is my privacy,

and my control over my body.

LELAND: Well, I'm making
chocolate-covered strawberries,

so get comfortable.

(QUIETLY): Hey, do you do
everything with Leland?

No. Just a few things.

Such as?

Tonight.

Ah, this mystery here?

- Ah. (CHUCKLES)
- Right, right.

- (LAUGHS)
- Um...

when do you think you can tell me

what this mystery is?

- Now, probably.
- Okay.

Then sh**t.

(BOTH LAUGH)

If you tried to stand

right now, could you?

- If you tried to stand, could you?
- To stand, could I?

Right now.

Oh, um...

Um...

What's going on?

Try to scream for me.

- What?
- Try to scream.

Wh... Wha...

(CHUCKLES)

What...

what are you doing?

None of this is dangerous.

- None of this is invasive.
- What?

- Wh-Wh...
- No, don't worry.

We are on your side, Sheryl.

(PANTING)

You're gonna feel a little pinch.

Ready?

No. Ten more minutes.

- Maggie?
- Yeah?

- Is this a game?
- Is what a game?

This whole lady-or-the-tiger
thing we got going.

(LAUGHS)

No idea what you're talking about.

- Wh...
- Going to get a drink.

You better be ready to go
again when I come back.

(PHONE VIBRATING)

Well, you miss me already?

Yeah, sorry, the train was late,

but I'll be there in .

Okay. Very funny. Come on, get in here.

- What?

Did you say something?

Who is that?

Who-who's this?

Vanessa. Is that my sister?

N... S... Okay, ser-seriously, I...

Wh-Who is this?

Is that my sister? Let me talk to her.

Hey, sis. Yeah, it's me.

Ben and I made a bit
of a mess in your bedroom.

I can send you photos.

(CHUCKLES)

She sounded pissed.

- H... Vanessa, hello?
- (BEEPING)

- (LINE RINGING)
- Mmm.

VANESSA: I'm away
from my phone right now...

Vanessa.

I know you're Vanessa.

I can be anybody
you want me to be, lover.

(CHUCKLES)

I'm out of here.

Oh, come on.

Don't let her spoil our fun.

- (ALARM RINGS, STOPS)
- We're good.

- EDWARD: Help, yeah?
- Yeah.

(EDWARD EXHALES)

Now, it's okay.

We are not here to hurt you.

(EDWARD SIGHS)

- Hello.
- Hello.

My name is Kristen Bouchard,

and this is a court order requiring RSM

to immediately return my eggs
in your storage facilities

to my possession. Please read.
You'll find that

if you do not return them to me today,

you will be subject to fines
of $ , for every infraction.

Do you have a facility
to transfer the materials?

I do. It's listed
at the bottom of the page

right there.

One correction. We are
storing of your eggs.

No, .

No. We only have listed .

All right, well, here's documentation.

I stored eggs.

I don't know what to say, ma'am.

- we only have listed.
- Since when?

Since always. We've always had only .

What did you do with the th?

(BOTH VOCALIZING)

(LAUGHTER)

Oh, hello. I...
Wait, I-I think I know you.

Sheryl?

Yes, you're-you're Kristen's
priest friend.

Right? Yeah, this is Edward.

Well, hello, Father.

Any priest friend of Sheryl's

- is a priest friend of mine.
- (BOTH LAUGH)

Uh, we were heading out to play tennis.

Do you want to join us?

No. I was, um, looking for Leland.

Oh, he's not in right now.

We were just dropping something off.

Well, actually, I was looking
for one of his guests.

Uh... Dr. Autry.

I don't know that person. Do you?

Oh, Leland has all kinds of
friends, but I think that's his

- fertility clinic friend.
- Mm-hmm.

She dropped by last night,
then she headed off.

I mean, I-I can leave a message for him.

No. I'll just, uh, come back.

Father, it's so good to meet
a dedicated religious person.

There's just so few of you left.

(BOTH VOCALIZING)

(BOTH LAUGH, CONTINUE VOCALIZING)

(MALINDAZ VIDEO PLAYING IN DISTANCE)

Lexi, I need to get something.

Mom!

I think we should talk.

What? I'm just paying attention
to the way I look.

Yeah. And I think we should talk.

This is what Malindaz
looks like in real life.

- What?
- Oh, no. That was the wrong photo.

- That's her?
- Mm-hmm.

And this is what good lighting

and Photoshop do for her.

Wow.

Exactly.

Influencers pretend
to be easily beautiful,

but they're using every
social media trick in the book

to intimidate other women

to try to follow their lead.

But no matter what you do,

no one can look like that in real life.

WOMAN: At its most basic level,
body positivity is the idea

that all bodies are good bodies.

The point is, Lexi, you're beautiful.

And that's not just
your mom saying that.

That's just a fact.

You have to be objective about yourself.

Everybody's got flaws,
but flaws are really

what make you unique and distinct.

Embrace it.

I love you.

Body positive.

Body positive.

I'm unique.

(LAUGHS)

It's George.

Okay. Quiz time.

What's the very scariest thing
that you've ever encountered?

- (EXHALES)
- Well, next time we learn the answer.

It's the I.R.S.

We need your advice.

The IRS has requested the church

for an opinion on the
new ministry of Satan.

- Are you texting?
- No, it's just how she takes notes.

And poor Kristen's own
dance with the devil

is hitting critical mass.

- (BREATHING HEAVILY)
- (HEARTBEAT THUMPING)

While David has his hands full
with Leland's final exorcism.

- (LOW GROWLING, THUD)
- I'm worried what effect

- this last one will have on poor Leland.
- (BREATHING SHAKILY)

(DRILL WHIRRING)

Things definitely aren't getting better.

Hope to see you next time.
